Why Dunwoody is a Great Base for Braves Fans

How to Get from Dunwoody to Truist Park

Rideshare: Taking an Uber or Lyft is often the easiest way from Dunwoody to Truist Park. Plan for 20–30 minutes on game day; allow extra time for traffic and walking into The Battery. Rideshares can drop you off right at The Battery (where Truist Park’s entrances are) and pick you up there after the game.

Driving: If you drive, leave plenty of time. Check traffic on I-285 and I-75. Use the Braves official parking map to select and pre-purchase your parking pass. Lots fill up fast, so booking ahead is strongly recommended.

Public transit: Dunwoody is on MARTA, but there’s no direct MARTA line to Truist Park. You’d need a shuttle or a ride from the nearest MARTA station, which adds complexity on game day. For Braves games, rideshare or driving is usually simpler.

Braves Parking Map and Best Parking at Truist Park

Truist Park can draw big crowds, so plan your parking ahead. The Braves recommend buying your game day parking pass in advance. Visit the Braves parking page to see lot maps and pricing. Your parking pass will show you which lot to use – check how far it is from the stadium and when it opens. (Some lots open 4 hours before first pitch, while others open closer to game time.)

Parking options:

Official Truist Park lots: Usually the quickest walk if you’re right next to The Battery.

The Battery decks: Parking decks at The Battery (like Red, Yellow, Green, Purple) may require validation ($50+ spend) on event days for a discount.
Avoid residential streets: Neighborhood streets around The Battery are permit-only on game days, so stick to official lots.
Remember: Battery deck parking becomes event pricing 4 hours before a game and for a few hours after. Always pull a ticket on entry and pay at the gate or with a code.

Check Battery Atlanta parking info for details.
